Chapter 929: Acquisition
To put it mildly, for Yang Fan now, how much money he makes now is really a number, or a number to look at. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
No matter how much he earns in the future, there is no material improvement for him. You can buy what you can buy, and you can't buy it or you can't buy it.
Control, influence, respect...... These spiritual pursuits are his pursuits.
In 06, through the second Internet summit, Yang Fan once again established his position on the Internet, and he was young, in fact, he can already be said to be a godfather-level figure.
Whether it's in Ningcheng, or in China, or even in Silicon Valley, the same can still be said. Especially on the mobile Internet, Qihang provides a big platform.
"The goal of Qihang is to build a new infrastructure for China's Internet. Just like highways and railways, the meaning of existence is not only to make profits, but to improve the operational efficiency of the whole society, not only economic efficiency, but also social, humanistic and so on. ”
"Now, the infrastructure of the Internet has begun to take shape, and I believe that in a few years, there will be fewer and fewer opportunities for enterprises with a platform like setting sail."
"In the openness and diversity of the Internet, opportunities will emerge in the infrastructure that has already taken shape. Just like around transportation, it will promote the development of various industries such as industry, agriculture and commerce, and in the information highway built by Qihang, it will also create a variety of new Internet economic models, and in the future, this is the biggest opportunity......
At the summit, Yang Fan pointed out the future direction for many Internet practitioners.
Qihang is not everyone's enemy, Qihang just helps everyone build an efficient platform.
Just like Qihang Mall, it is true to make more money, but in fact, hundreds of billions of transactions, how many are in Qihang's hands? Most of it is still earned by various merchants. Similarly, the big data that set sail is actually optimizing the allocation of social resources.
In the internal incubation of Qihang, various companies such as data processing have actually been hot.
In fact, Qihang has already started the construction plan of the information superhighway internally, which is a move to improve the efficiency of social resource allocation. And after the Internet Summit, the plan was also supported by the country......
In 06 years, when the Internet had not officially exploded, now Qihang has exerted its influence in all aspects.
In this year, Qihang sold more than 400,000 cars, second only to VW. However, if VW is divided into north and south, Qihang can become the first among the brands. This year, Geely's performance was also quite good, with nearly 250,000 sales entering the top five!
Fiat sold 170,000 units, lagging behind Guangben and Yifeng, but it also entered the top ten.
It can be said that Qihang Automobile has opened up the market in China, and in foreign markets, Qihang has always been the leader. After all, the popularity of Qihang Group is not comparable to that of other domestic automobile manufacturers.
If you calculate the manufacturers, Qihang Automobile is only behind Shanghai Automobile......
In just four or five years, Qihang has created a second-largest car manufacturer in the country, which is indeed an exaggeration. Undoubtedly, Qihang has recreated an industrial myth.
Similarly, through the car, Qihang once again proved that it not only has a strong ability on the Internet, but also has a very high level in industry.
In addition, the previous Qihang mobile phone, Qihang display and other things are good, especially Qihang mobile phone, now it is a world-renowned brand, the most promising mobile phone company, and Qihang has opened up the boundaries with the strongest Internet, reaching a realm of mutual promotion, no wonder some people will exclaim, as long as Yang Fan is willing, there is nothing he can't do, there is no enterprise that he has failed to invest in.
Keen eye, keen sense of smell, strong business ability...... This is already a label attached to Yang Fan.
In the year of '07, the subprime mortgage crisis broke out.
Many financial institutions in Europe and the United States have been seriously injured, and Goldman Sachs, which has a good relationship with Yang Fan, is one of the big winners, and Yang Fan has also made a lot of money through Goldman Sachs. Of course, this is in the name of a person, not a sail.
Because of the 08 Olympics, China is in full swing, as if it is not affected.
In the subprime mortgage crisis, Ford and GM had a hard time...... Ford began to sell assets, Jaguar Land Rover, Volvo were also taken out. And Yang Fan is ready to attack Jaguar Land Rover.
Volvo is still left to Boss Li, of course, the main thing is that Jaguar Land Rover is also easier to operate in the hands of Qihang.
Relying on such mergers and acquisitions, Sailing can also be regarded as its own industrial layout at night, with ultra-luxury Maserati, luxurious Jaguar Land Rover, and ordinary brands setting sail.
As a well-known rich man with world influence, Yang Fan has a good relationship with the United States, and he also has a lot of political resources in Europe and the United States, so the resistance to the entire acquisition is not great.
Especially when Yang Fan said that Qihang Automobile can cooperate with Ford, Ford Automobile has more power.
100 years of Ford, ruined with Chang'an!
With such a god teammate on the stall, known as the most patriotic enterprise in China, Ford is also bitter.
Obviously, the time to enter China is also very early, and it has cooperated with Changan in 01 year, but in recent years, not to mention Volkswagen, GM Buick. Just look at Hyundai, Honda and other companies are booming, treating the Chinese market as a big granary, but Ford, which is also a world-famous car brand, is hanging half-dead, which is much worse than Fiat.
Ford always has an unspeakable sadness about this state of affairs.
Sailing is completely different, a newly established enterprise, not only its own brand to do the wind and water, become the leader of China's own brand, but also very experienced in joint ventures. Even if Fiat is such an unsuccessful car company, it makes Qihang toss into the top ten, seriously, what is there for Ford?
Yang Fan wants to buy, Ford wants to cooperate, in this case, the fluctuations that the British and American governments can bring are very small, and Ford himself is generally flat!
Everything went well, and by the end of '97, the agreement between the two sides was basically reached...... The reason why it will drag on for so long is that Ford has to reach an understanding with Changan Company.
After obtaining the understanding of Changan, Qihang Automobile and Ford reached a cooperation agreement, and the two parties will establish a production base with an annual output of 200,000 yuan in Zhuocheng. In order to acquire Jaguar Land Rover, Yang Fan paid a price of two billion US dollars, which is lower than the price of the historical Tata Group. But Ford will make more money from this deal than it did with Tata.
After all, there is an excellent partner.
Yang Fan has acquired three manufacturing plants, two design centers, and Jaguar Land Rover, a brand that is well-known around the world. As long as their R&D begins to be transfused, Jaguar Land Rover still has a lot of potential.
